I occasionally bumped into this dude and he has an impressive number of videos. To me, it is a case of an obvious idea to have, once someone had it.
83Definitely also requires the dedication. I'd bet he was not the first who has had that idea, but he was the first to do, and keep doing it.
78There's this awesome dude on Twitch. Big old beard, used to gift games to his community consistently, consistent interaction, and last I checked he had maybe 4 people watching him. Dedication is good, though it's really tough even being cool and likeable when luck just doesn't give a fuck.
As for me: ADHD rarely lets me stay in a community for longer than a few months, so I sorta fell out, as I do. Still, it'd be awesome if one day I saw him sitting with 20+ people.
Edit: Just had a quick peek and only 5 people. :/

He seems like such a chill person, what a great idea for a YT channel

This is a lovely channel.
39Just Bored also does a lot of great content like this.

Anyone see that lemmy community in all that is just some guy writing letters to his kids since his wife has a restraining order out on him? This gives me that kind of vibe.
28Whoa do you have a link to this?
21When they reply can you re-reply so i can see

Nope. Sauce pls.
5It was in all list back in October. Can't remember the name, something like "letters to my kids", but I'm not finding it on the community list anymore.

Fixing a running toilet was so much easier before gravity flow took over everything. I even bought a Japanese toilet recently because the gravity flow device in my standard American toilet just would.not.seal., even after replacing it. Thing was driving me nuts.
So instead, I had my dad install a toilet for me! Go dad.
24Damn Newton and his gravity.

we take our privileges for granted, but I'm glad this guy is providing a service to people who might not have the means to ask a dad for one reason or another.
20My dad wasn't exactly great. He didn't really care for my hobbies or anything, he was a classic provider who didn't really wanted to raise kids.
Last year i got a new guy in the flat underneath me. He was like 26 and asked me if i can hang his lamp. I said sure thing and did it. I hang up multiple things, set some stuff up and what have you. He asked so many questions and was in awe of my tools. I jokingly asked him if he never held a tool in his life. He said no, he never had a dad, he quite literally learned nothing about fixing things tools and all sorts of handyman things.
Until this point i had no idea just how important it is to grow up with someone like that.

meanwhile your average team fortress 2 community server is like a kombucha for slurs
17Online slurs are just words they dont mean anything they probably make up the second largest portion of the internet after porn that is.
-1I used to believe that “words are just words”, but the problem is that that pov only works in a “troll trolling trolls” setting. If you have other people who expect different things from online interactions, then you’re just creating a shit environment for everyone, which is the equivalent of walking around irl while showing people the middle finger

YouTube is great in general. I remember as a teen going into college thinking that the changes were going to kill it but really the platform has a lot of great content for everything. Everything except gaming anyways, which is a bit ironic.
Tutorials, cooking videos, engineering and math videos, historical discussions and theory.
4I love that channel, he helped me fix my toilet.
